    Sunday is not a day !

    Nope..Kodi, in this context, don't look at 'Sunday' as a day at all....Think in those lines and give me the answer !

    Preethi

    With all your clues this is what comes to my mind

    Dear Preethi,

    Puzzle 1- She is riding on Sunday[I am not sure if this is a horse or what]
    Puzzle 2- The name of his horse is Sunday, since it is not the day of the week here HENCE he comes home on Thurs.

    Does this make sense here Preethi. Let me know:tongue

    Love,

    Answer....

    Hi Preethi
    I think I may be correct...
    Puzzle1: The lady is rides into the city on Sunday... Means her bike or horse or some other vehicle name is Sunday. Then again she leaves on Sunday.

    Puzzle2: The cow boy came into the city on Sunday... again the vehicle name can be Sunday. And whatever day he starts, say Tuesday, then he can stay for 2 nights and he can come back on Thursday.

    Here u told the same logic wont work for both the puzzles. So we can think of the time and the journey will take one day, as I told u before.
    So the previous answer can work here.

    Let me know I am correct or not...
    Awaiting ur reply
    Gayathri.

    One more try...

    Hi Preethi
    Dont laugh at my answer.:cry:
    Is there any time difference, by the means of countries?
    Bcoz, in one country it may be Sunday, and in the other it may be Monday. So it can be possible right?
    Reply soon.

    Gayathri...

    Hi all ilites........Request

    I have a request with me.
    I missed so many puzzles the previous day bcoz immediately some one are solving the puzzles after giving the question, and again others giving their questions. I missed 3-4 puzzles only in 4 hours. So I request all of u, to keep a time in the day to post any puzzle. If one puzzle is solved, the other persons should post their at the time which we'll decide. Otherwise, so many people miss puzzles.
    So plz consider my request. We can post a puzzle daily in the morning, so that we can make it a daily puzzle thread. If that is solved by next day's morning, the puzzle can be posted at that time. Otherwise, we can post that puzzle, the next day morning. What all of u say?
    Reply soon.

    Gayathri...:wave
